Soap Opera Digest has learned that Felisha Terrell has been let go and Lindsay Hartley (ex-Theresa, PASSIONS) has been hired to take over the role of Arianna. Hartley reports to work tomorrow. The move reunites Hartley with her former PASSIONS brother Galen Gering (Rafe, ex-Luis) and on-screen love interest Eric Martsolf (Brady; ex-Ethan). See upcoming issues of Digest and Weekly for more.

What happened? I keep getting an "error" code! OOPS! Never mind! I think this is a smart move by DAYS! She's a talented woman and I thought she'd have been the FIRST to be snatched up out of the PASSIONS cast!

I never watched Passions so I have no clue about Hartley's acting abilities; if she's good, great! But I do feel sorry for Felisha Terrell, who I think did the best she could with a thankless, underwritten role. I already like the character of Arianna and I assume the writers are going to strengthen the Brady/Arianna romance. I guess this is a pre-emptive move to draw some more viewers for that crucial ratings period Corday cited of this September through next March. If she starts taping tomorrow I guess we'll see her sometime in mid to late August.

This is exactly what I'm thinking. Look, I know there are a lot of Passions fans on the board and some people who couldn't stand the show. While I'm sure Lindsay will do all right on Days, those of us who have watched Days for years don't like seeing this show turned into something else. Anyone remember "Teens of our Lives"?

I wish Felisha well.

With the few scenes I had seen of Arianna, I wasn't liking her. But I wasn't disliking her either which is a huge plus when it comes to this show. The reasons for not getting on board was I felt the writing for her was so underdeveloped and very BORING. FT probably could have added a bit animation to the role, but I imagine what the show's set is like, probably sucks the life out of you!
